Housing and urban research is a field of current interest to many people and organizations. IBF arranges seminars and conferences for the academic sphere, but we also collaborate with organizations, authorities and companies operating in the area of housing / construction / urban planning.

Every second year IBF hosts the popular “Bostadsmötet” (Housing Meeting) – a conference for politicians, researchers and actors in the housing and building industry, facilitating discussion of current housing issues in a popular scientific format.

Through the annual Uppsala Lecture in Housing and Urban research IBF attracts international leading researchers in the housing and urban field to give a public lecture in their area of expertise. IBF uses the lecture to make high quality research visible at local, national and international levels.

Our other research activities include an open seminar series targeted at interested researchers. We also publish news of our researchers' activities, research and publications, and have initiated various networks where researchers with common interests can meet.
